ACCUSED OF THEFT.
Chas. kricdt Arrested on
Charge of Petty Larceny.

Chas. Kricdt Arrested on n
Charge of Petty Larceny.
John s. Keifer, who for some time
past has been proprietor of the Grand
View hotel at Monrovia, came to the
police station yesterday and asked for
the Chief, but being told that he was
out he made the object of his visit
known to Captain Fletcher.
Some time since Mr.. Keifer had sold
out his interest in the Monrovia hotel,
and a few days ago was moving his
belongings from the hotel to small
cottage in which he intended to reside
temporarily, and Mrs. Keifer had, in
the hustle and hurry incidental to
moving, carelessly placed her gold
watch and fob on an open trunk, in
tending to place them in safer place
shortly.
She left the room on some pretext
or other, and when she returned the
watch and chain were gone, and
no clue could be found to the
purloiner of the articles, but it is said
circumstances pointed strongly to
Charles Kriedt, who had been in the
employ of Mr.. Keifer for a number Of
years, and who had been several
times before detected in the act of
committing petty thleveries about the
premises. Kriedt had the entire con-
fidence of his employer, and had in
consequence full access to the whole
house, and it was stated that he ad-
mitted the theft of some cigars and
number of miscellaneous articles
which had been missed only sh .rt
time before the watch was stolen. He
had full charge of the laundry depart
ment of the hotel, and in view of the
fact that he had admitted the theft Of
the cigars, MIR. Keifer called at the
station to procure an officer to arrest
Kreidt, but was informed that the de-
partment must have personal knowl-
edge of an. offense before
warrant could be issued,
upon which he went to the
depot and intercepted Kreidt, who
had just stepped off the train, having
just returned from Santa Ana, and
took him to the station where he
was booked Tor petit larceny. From
the station he was taken in the Gus
tody Of officer Ribble and in company
with MIR. Hunter driven to the st.
Helena House ON Fort street, where
it was claimed two girls were rooming
with whom Kreidt was supposed to
divide. Their room was searched but
no damaging evidence found against
them. The watch and chain are val
ued at $175 in cash, but Mr.. Keifer re-
garded them more valuable as souve-
Mrs. He did not accuse Kreidt Of
taking them, but was sure he knew
something about it, while Kreidt him
self says he is perfectly innocent, and
the girls are all right, as one of them
had been in the employ of Mr.. Keif-
er's father for number of years. He
refused to give their names.
Mr.. Keller offered overtures of vari-
Gus kinds to Kreidt if he would
divulge what he knew of the disap-
pearance of the watch, even offering
to drop the whole matter and not to
rosecute the case provided Kreidt
would surrender the articles.

CITY TAXES.
Only Seven more Days i'm Which
to Pay Them.


to Pay Them.
Tax payers in general may not be
aware of the fact that all taxes on city
property must be paid before the first
day of November, but such is the
case. Those who have not yet paid
have just week in which to pay, the
tax is due and from appearances there
ill be many who, if they would,
could not be accommodated. 1t was
stated in the HERALD when the taxes
became due, about the first of Sep
tember, that property owners would
be wise to pay their taxes at once, and
not wait until the last week or day in
the hope that they could crowd in and
settle them. The assessment rolls
opened with 1851 ,4509S to be COL
lected on city property, and in
order to give everybody a chance
Tax Collector Field announced
that he would receive money week
earlier than was necessary. This he
thought best on account of the many
unknown owners on the rolls, and
also because the project had been very
much divided, and there were at least
twice as many people to pay taxes as
in former years. In opening earlier
than usual. he expected that the peo-
pie would take advantage Of the op-
portunity given, and help themselves
out of the difficulties which seemed
sure to come. The people did not re-
spond, and since the books were open
only $171 ,6I9.88, or little less than
one-half has been paid in. The Tax
Collectors Office has been open for
the receipt of these taxes over fifty
days, and but seven remain in which
$189, ,S31 10 must be paid in or become
delinquent. 1t is very evident to those
who know anything about the collec-
ton of taxes in this city that
the collection of $189, ,831.10 in seven
days is an utter impossibility, and in
consequence thereof there is certain
to be a very long list of delinquents
this year. 1t is said that if the people
were to present themselves early this
morning and form in line, so that no
time would be lost, that there would
still remain at the end of the week
many who could not pay before the
closing hour next Monday night. The
office room of the Tax Collector is in
adequate to the accommodation of
large crowds, and Mr.. Field cannot
operate with more clerical force than at
present, consequently there is no way
out OF the difficulty, brought on by
the tardiness OF the taxpayers. After
next Monday five per cent will be
added to all unpaid taxes, besides the
cost of advertisement. On the third
Tuesday in December the delinquent
list will be published, and three weeks
later the delinquent tax sale will take
place.
There seems to be no lack OF money
in the city treasury. On the 1st Of
October there was on hand $3.50, ,065. 80,
and this morning City Auditor Teed
will report 1922 ,S93.21 on hand, an
increase OF SIP, ,227.41. There are,
therefore, no signs of bankruptcy at
present

IDLE TALK.

Henry Grady, one Of the editors Of thu
Atlanta Constitution, published in Allan
Ia, Georgia, recently made an after-dinne,
speech in New York which 80 tickled his
listeners that they Immediately voted him
the second place on the presidential ticket
for 1888. This is idle talk. While Grady
is counted al a Democrat be is not OF the
stripe and measure to command the sup.
port OF the great mass OF the party. He ID
a southern protectionist and a visionary,
and will be forgotten as a candidate in the
national convention in 1888. While not
endorsing all the San Francisco Chronicle
says OF him it speaks some truths which
are fatal to his prospects. That journal
says:
Those who are trying to boom Henry

Dental ticket in 1888 have Q, identity for

speech at the recent New England dinner

in that address which touched a responsive
chord in the North was this: II am glad
that the omniscient God held the balance
OF tho battle in his almighty hand. and that
the American Union was saved from the
wreck NtWar." But this didn't express
Grady's tue sentiments: it was merely an
ora:orical flourish. When he introduced

cealment OF his sentiments. He said: my
